The Mobile Connect service will  simplify consumers&rsquo; lives, offering a single, trusted, mobile phone number-based  authentication solution that fully respects their online privacy. In addition  to leading mobile operators, key players from across the ecosystem are among  the early supporters of this initiative, including Dailymotion, Deezer,  Gemalto, Giesecke &amp; Devrient, Morpho,  Oberthur and VALID.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;As we move to an  increasingly connected world, more consumers than ever are accessing  information and using a range of online services across both mobile and fixed  line networks,&rdquo; said Anne Bouverot, Director General, GSMA. &ldquo;This digital life  brings great benefits to consumers, but also introduces new concerns over the  security of online identities. Mobile operators are ideally placed to provide  the necessary authentication capabilities to enable consumers, businesses and  governments alike to interact and access services in a private, trusted and  secure environment. The Mobile Connect initiative we are introducing today  addresses this critical requirement.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>For consumers,  digital identity solutions such as Mobile Connect offer privacy protection,  reduce the risk of identity theft and simplify the login experience for a range  of services, such as retail, healthcare, government and banking, among others.  Mobile Connect will provide a streamlined experience for users; they will no  longer need to create and manage multiple user names and passwords as the  authentication and identification solution being developed will use the  subscriber&rsquo;s mobile phone number or mobile user name and information contained  in the secure SIM card. The standard-based Mobile Connect service will utilise  the OpenID Connect protocol, offering broad interoperability across mobile  operators and service providers, further ensuring a seamless experience for  consumers. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Industry Support for Mobile Connect<\/strong><br \/>\n  Leading mobile  operators and companies across the mobile ecosystem voiced their support for  the Mobile Connect solution: <\/p>\n<p><strong>Jamaludin Ibrahim, President and Group  CEO of Axiata Group Berhad<\/strong>, said: &ldquo;Axiata is very pleased to be part of the  Mobile Connect initiative coordinated by the GSMA and is looking forward to  working with other operators, service providers, SIM vendors and other parts of  the mobile identity ecosystem to launch services that offer real benefits for  consumers in terms of convenience and security, while respecting their privacy.  We welcome service providers to work closely with us to ensure that the  solutions suit their needs and requirements. We have&nbsp;already&nbsp;launched  a mobile identity service in Sri Lanka via Dialog, and we are looking forward  to working with our other operators so that Mobile Connect can be available to  all consumers in the countries we have operations.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Etisalat has  proven that mobile technologies can be secure and life-changing across its  footprint. In our home market of UAE, Etisalat is supporting the government&rsquo;s  vision and plan to move government services into the electronic realm. Soon the  mobile phones of UAE residents will also serve as National ID, and users are  able to login and access more than 100 government services using their mobile  devices. Similarly, we are working across other business verticals including  mCommerce and mHealth to provide Personal Data based services to address  growing needs of our customers across countries where we operate,&quot; said&nbsp;<strong>Ahmad  Abdulkarim Julfar, Chief Executive Officer of Etisalat  Group.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tadashi Onodera, Chairman, KDDI,<\/strong> said: &quot;In Japan, we have already launched a mobile identity service, au  ID, which is available to all of our customers. This is a key enabler for our  value-add and content services and is  a huge success. We are now  actively supporting the Mobile Connect initiative by the GSMA with the other operators, sharing our experiences and  looking for ways to deliver a consistent offering across operators.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Nasser Marafih, Group CEO, Ooredoo, <\/strong>said: &ldquo;Personal data is an  important issue for our customers across the Middle East, North Africa and  South East Asia, which makes this initiative a key strategic opportunity for  us. We are committed to working with the GSMA on a range of propositions  related to Mobile Connect, because we believe that digital services can enrich  people&#8217;s lives. The first set of Mobile Connect services will be launched  by&nbsp;Ooredoo&#8217;s company Indosat&nbsp;in Indonesia as early as 2015.&quot;<\/p>\n<p><strong>St\u00e9phane Richard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of  Orange, commented:<\/strong> &ldquo;Mobile Connect is an easy, secure and universal solution for  customers to connect to all digital services. It is for Orange an opportunity  to show its capacity to innovate with simple services while improving personal  data protection.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Axel Dauchez, CEO of Deezer<\/strong>,  said: &ldquo;This new innovation from the GSMA is set to provide a much simpler  experience for Deezer users, which means people can focus on what&rsquo;s important  to them &#8211;&nbsp;discovering great new music. With around 65 per cent of all  music listened to on Deezer via a mobile phone, Mobile Connect will help  provide music fans with a seamless mobile experience as well as increased  convenience across other devices.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p><strong>Olivier Piou, CEO of Gemalto<\/strong>,  said: &ldquo;The Mobile Connect SIM-based solution works on any handset and can be  instantly deployed over the air, enabling it to reach the majority of existing  SIM cards. It delivers a consistent user experience and one-click access across  a whole range of services offered, whatever the security level required. To  boost the adoption of Mobile Connect, Gemalto will embed the mobile connect  applet in the ROM code of all new SIM cards at no cost for operators, once the  GSMA solution is available. As Mobile Connect complies with industry standards,  it will be very easy for service providers to integrate.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Walter Schlebusch, CEO of Giesecke &amp; Devrient<\/strong>,  said: &rdquo;G&amp;D has built up a broad experience over the last years in the integration  of SIM-based mobile ID solutions. We have managed successful projects with  several network operators around the globe. The SIM-card is one of the most  secure and natural ways to store identities on a mobile. We are happy to  support this initiative with the experience we gained and to come to a harmonised  solution for the whole industry.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p><strong>Philippe d&rsquo;Andr\u00e9a, Executive VP, Business Solutions  Division and CEO, Morpho Cards GmbH<\/strong> said: &ldquo;As one of the key players in digital security, Morpho is pleased to  contribute to an initiative supporting the deployment of mobile identity  services. It will enable our customers, MNOs and service providers, to manage  all kind of online services and offer them to millions of users. We believe  that trust in security of services will be built on strong enrolment, a strong  secure element and strong authentication. The Mobile Connect application will  be included in our standard SIM offer once the solution is available.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The GSMA Connect  initiative is a major step to enhance the user experience in the cloud, protecting  the privacy and the data of consumers. OT contributes to Mobile Connect and  brings an additional option with the implementation of FIDO authentication in  the SIM. This solution provides a high level of security and a rich user  experience for mobile users as it can be combined with mobile biometrics,&rdquo; said <strong>Didier Lamouche, CEO of Oberthur  Technologies<\/strong>. &ldquo;Consumers and service providers are demanding more security  and convenience to enhance their digital experience in mobility. The GSMA  Mobile Connect initiative will enable Mobile operators to deploy interoperable  SIM-based identity services for mass adoption.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mobile Connect Pilot in Barcelona<\/strong><br \/>\n  A pilot project run  through the Mobile Word Capital initiative in the Mobile World Capital Barcelona  and involving the GSMA, Orange, Morpho and the Catalonian healthcare service  has also agreed to test the authentication mechanisms in a live environment.<\/p>\n<p>The CEO of Fundaci\u00f3  TICSalut, Dr. Francesc Garc\u00eda Cuy\u00e0s, said: &ldquo;I  am glad to announce that the Catalan Personal Health Record service, which has  a potential user base of five million citizens, will benefit from a mobile  connect solution, enabling them to access their medical data and interact with  healthcare professionals. I believe Mobile Connect is  one of the key elements that will lead the future in mHealth. This will  reinforce how citizens play an active role in managing their health. Orange, as  a key player in mHealth, will facilitate access to medical records creating the  adequate environment for new services and applications to be delivered to  citizens.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>The Director of the  mHealth Competence Center at Mobile Word Capital, Dr. Joan Cornet added:  &ldquo;Secure access to personal health records is our priority. We are delighted  that Orange and Morpho are paving the way, providing a simple and interoperable  solution.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mobile Connect Operator Launches<\/strong><br \/>\n  In line with its  commitment to providing customers with the highest possible level of security,  Orange intends to provide Mobile Connect-based solutions across its footprint  in Europe and Africa and the Middle East by 2015. Ooredoo is also aiming to  provide similar services in&nbsp;South East Asia&nbsp;around the same time  frame. The GSMA expects to see additional operator launches of Mobile Connect in  2015. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;We call on mobile  operators, SIM card manufacturers, service providers and other  key mobile industry participants to work with the GSMA to drive scale for this  exciting initiative,&rdquo; said GSMA Director General Anne Bouverot. <\/p>\n<p>For more information on Mobile Connect,  please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gsmamobileconnect.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.gsmamobileconnect.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">-ENDS-<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the  GSMA<\/strong> <br \/>\n  The  GSMA represents the interests of mobile operators worldwide.&nbsp;Spanning more than 220 countries and territories, the GSMA unites nearly 800 of the world&rsquo;s mobile operators  with 250 companies in the broader mobile ecosystem, including handset and device makers, software companies, equipment  providers and Internet companies, as well as organisations in industry sectors  such as financial services, healthcare, media, transport and utilities.
